Which is what adds to confusion on this issue in a historical context - there's what the people who made it would call it, what the educated people writing about it at the time would call it, what various historians and chroniclers between then and now would call it, what the industrial people today would call it, and what the people hand-crafting it today would call it.
Throw in extra problems, like translating to different languages, on top of sheer linguistic drift and disagreements between various technical jargons, and it's a wonder we can all agree on "ferrous".
